Eggs in Tortillas image

This recipe, originally from a Canadian Living cookbook, is for 6 -- but you could make just 1 or lots. These are a real treat for breakfast/brunch/lunch. Add some chopped ham if you wish; I've added snips of smoked salmon and it's divine.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 small flour tortillas, room temperature (6-inch diameter tortillas work well)
3/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup finely sliced green onion
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
6 large eggs
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375F degrees.
  • Spray 6 ramekins or custard cups with non-stick cooking spray (like Pam) and gently push a tortilla into each; you'll have to make some pleats.
  • Reserve 6 teaspoons of the finely diced red pepper; combine remaining pepper with onions and parsley in a small bowl.
  • Divide veggie mixture between the 6 tortillas.
  • Crack 1 egg into a small bowl and gently tip into one of the tortillas, placing egg on top of the veggies; repeat until all 6 tortillas are filled.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper if you wish.
  • Place baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove and sprinkle 1 tsp of the raw red pepper you saved on top of each egg; serve.
  • Variation: sprinkle some shredded cheddar or mozzarella on top of eggs before baking.
